MJT finish on musikraft body (which means routing/drilling will be needed)
the main goal i gave them was making some middle ground between the frusciante and marr jaguar, minimal wear ( i do NOT like the excessive wear they do, looks really obvious in real life) but something that looks close to a well used guitar.
more shots of progress

Wear marks finished, now they are going to age/check the finish and chips and should be close to done.

Thankfully this was paid before losing my job, could have made for an awkward conversation were it not, now I will have time to finesse the body when it gets in

Almost there, this one needs some tweaking before it's done, but it's coming together

Can I ask what pickups you have got in that thing. I have an aerodyne telecaster that is set up the same way (p90 neck, single coil bridge) and am looking to swap out the bridge for something a bit thicker. Was thinking of putting a dimarzio pre-B-one in and then maybe finding a less noise P90 for the neck.

From the first pic I thought it was P90. Nonetheless, that must sound pretty awesome.

That 7elecaster looks incredible. I also have an aerodyne and love it (P-90 neck and tele bridge is a great set of tones to have in one guitar) and would love a 7-string version.

I like how the decal turned out.
Looks pretty legit from a distance.
Looks like they did a good job applying it.
